[i cant write a fight scene so beware]
I wiped the blood off my jaw and looked back up at the sillouette facing me. I lunged for the black bag slung over his shoulder but he rolled out of the way before I could. I leaped on him and reached for the bag again.

he rolled us over so he was leaning over me and punched me across the face repeatedly. I grabbed the bag off his back and brought my knee up and hit him in the gut. He groaned and heard the sirens growing louder. He punched me again and hopped off and ran away into an alley.

the last thing I saw before I passed out was a head of blonde hair and the feeling of the bag of cash stolen from the bank in my hands to return.

I opened the door to my apartment slowly. I limped in the room and shut the door quietly. I slowly turned to see Luke asleep on the couch with a bowl of chips on his lap. I smiled fondly and limped over to take the bowl from his hands and put it in the kitchen, when when I picked it up, Luke woke up.

"oh hey Cal, I tried to wait up for you but I guess I fell asleep. how was the match, did you win?" Luke rubbed his eyes and sat up. he looked at me with a lazy smile as I sat beside him and wrapped my arm around his shoulders. I sighed as I remembered that Luke only knows the lie I've told him, that I'm a wrestler and that why I'm never home and always covered in bruises; but not that I'm actually a superhero and spend most of time crime fighting and trying to keep the people of Sydney safe.

"course Lukey, I always win for you" He nodded and yawned while resting his head on my shoulder. "okay, we should go to bed, it's late" Luke nodded and we began to slowly make our way upstairs to the bedroom. about halfway up the stairs a sleepy Luke lost his balance on the stair and began to fall back. I walked up and caught him before he fell and Luke leaned into my arms and nuzzled his face into my neck.

"My hero" I smiled at the irony and finished carrying Luke up the stairs and tucked him into bed. I layed down beside him and pulled his back to my chest.

"you have no idea"

I woke up first the next morning, which normally doesn't happen, so I didn't really know what to do. I tried to go back to sleep, it didn't work, so I just decided to get up and make Luke and I breakfast.

I walked down the stairs and in the light I really saw how messy the area was. I sighed and just decided to clean it before I made breakfast. I picked up the trash all around and picked my keys. I tossed them in the air on the way to the key rack in the kitchen. I missed and ended up dropping them, and my house key fell off and rolled around on the hardwood floor (this actually happens to me all the time I don't u n d e r s t a n d i t)

I reached down and chased it all around the kitchen till it rolled into under the door to Luke's office. I stared at the door. Luke was enrolled in uni, where as I was not, so he needed a place to do his work. Luke was also pretty particular about his school things and needed silence to study so we made him an office. he's never told me to not to go in there, I just never did because I never had a need to. but now I guess I did; but I couldn't shake the feeling that I should go in. (a/n imagine this as the door/office Mr. Incredible has in his house)

I pushed open the door and the light from the outside almost immediately allowed me to see the key on the ground. I leaned down and picked up the key and when I was straightening up I saw a familiar color out of the corner of my eye. I walked over to it and lifted it is I could see it properly. it was a mostly black bodysuit with a gray vest over top and little gloves. it looked so familiar to me. where had I seen it before?

before I could fully look at the material in my hands and piece together the thoughts in my mind, I hear a voice:

"you shouldn't be in here" I look again at the material in my hands and closed my eyes thinking hard.

"why not? it's not against the law" as soon as that sentence left my mouth I got a flashback from where I had seen that suit before. I clenched my fist and turned to face luke.

"at least it's much less illegal then say, robbing a bank right?" I snarled at him. His frown dropped and was replaced with a confused expression.

"how do you know about that?" he whispered.

"cause I fucking stopped you, asshole" I threw the suit at his chest and crossed my arms and huffed. I watched his face change as he processed what I said and thought about what it meant.

"so I'm gunna guess that you aren't a wrestler?" I rolled my eyes.

"any other observations luke?"

"um...you've probably guessed this isn't my office for uni"

"Luke! how about you say something like 'yeah I'm a super villain and you're my nemesis', or how about 'you beat me up yesterday when I tried to rob a bank yesterday, crazy date night'. either of those would've worked" he sighed and sat on the floor and leaned up against the wall.

"we're screwed. how can we date our nemesis?"

"I guess we'll just have to not be nemesis anymore" I sat down beside him.

"I can't just stop being evil, Calum. and you can't exactly stop being 'Mr. Perfect' overnight" I nodded my head.

"Okay, well you can at least stop robbing banks" I rolled my eyes again. Luke chuckled and nodded.

"I think I can do that, but could you still let me steal your shirts?" he pouted up at me as i set my face in a fake frown, while trying not to laugh. I wrapped my arm around his shoulder and pulled him into my lap.

"why? you've already stolen my heart"
